Earlier this month the Bank of America transferred full ownership, through its subsidiary company MBNA Marketing Systems Inc., of 1 Park Drive to the City of Rockland Maine. This is the building that houses the Maine Lighthouse Museum (MLM), the City of Rockland Police Dept. and the Maine Lobster Festival. After the transfer the City of Rockland declared the property a condominium selling separate units to the MLM and Maine Lobster Festival with the city keeping a unit for the Police Dept. The MLM now owns the space they already occupy on the upper level as does the City and the Lobster Festival both on the ground floor. After all was said and done, after all closings took place, the 1 Park Drive Business Condominium Association was formed.

I received the following email invitation to all from Dot Black;

Come join us at the Maine Lighthouse Museum for a celebration of the Purchase of the Condo on Saturday, October 6.

Starting at 10 am there will be a sale of lighthouse "stuff", that will be held in the Breakwater Room.

Authors will be selling their books and autographing them in the front by the Chamber desk starting at 3:00 until 6. Authors joining us on that day will be Angeli Perrow, Robert Trapani, Ernest DeRaps, Jeremy D'Entremont, Ted Panayotoff, and a new group that calls themselves ALMOST AUTHORS they have just done a booklet called "Mice and Lighthouses" and have dedicated it to Ken Black, Mr. Lighthouse. They have also illustrated this book. These would make great Christmas gifts for Lighthouse enthusiasts of all ages on your list.

We will end the day with a Cocktail Party starting at 5 PM until 8 PM. The cost will be $25 per person, tickets are available at the MLM store and from all MLM Board Members.
